This guide explains how to use the Broadcom driver for Windows on Kubuntu, which is to be preferred as the drivers are not open at all to the situation
first install the package Ndiswrapper (also on CD Installing Ubuntu / Kubuntu)
We need the broadcom driver downloaded from Acer
open a shell and run:
sudo ndiswrapper-i driver.inf
check if everything went well:
ndiswrapper-l you should see something like installated driver, hardware present
hour launch
sudo kwrite / etc / modprobe.d / blacklist
go to the last line and type: blacklist bcm43xx
sudo kwrite / etc / modules
go to the last line and type:
ndiswrapper
nn hour that you just restart ..
------------------------------------------------- ----Turn on the LED
the card is now installed, but package must be installed to enable acerhk
Scarichiamoli buttons, and launch scompattiamolo:
. / Configure make
make install sudo modprobe
acerhk
sudo kwrite / etc / modules
go to the last line and type:
acerhk
restart
for enable the wireless LED we just open a shell and run:
echo on> / proc / driver / acerhk / wirelessled
that's all .. the card will work fine if you were open to those problems as I found online ..
Help tested on Ubuntu 7.10 and KDE 4.0.1
